Detailed Description

Low-level Drivers for Network Devices.

Typedef Documentation

net_input_func

typedef int(* net_input_func) (netif_t *nif, const uint8 *pkt, int len)

Network input callback type.

Parameters

nif	The network device in use.
pkt	The packet received.
len	The length of the packet, in bytes.

Returns

0 on success, <0 on failure.

Function Documentation

net_get_if_list()

struct netif_list * net_get_if_list

(

void

)

Function to retrieve the interface list.

Warning

Do not manipulate what this returns to you!

Returns

The network interface list.

net_init()

int net_init

(

uint32

ip

)

Init network support.

Note

To auto-detect the IP address to assign to the default device (i.e, over DHCP or from the flashrom on the Dreamcast), pass 0 as the IP parameter.

Parameters

ip	The IPv4 address to set on the default device, in host byte order.

Returns

0 on success, <0 on failure.

net_input()

int net_input	(	netif_t *	device,
		const uint8 *	data,
		int	len
	)

Device drivers should call this function to submit packets received in the background.

This function may or may not return immediately but it won't take an infinitely long time (so it's safe to call inside interrupt handlers).

Parameters

device	The network device submitting packets.
data	The packet to submit.
len	The length of the packet, in bytes.

Returns

0 on success, <0 on failure.

net_input_set_target()

net_input_func net_input_set_target

(

net_input_func

t

)

Setup a network input target.

Parameters

t	The new target callback.

Returns

The old target.

net_reg_device()

int net_reg_device

(

netif_t *

device

)

Register a network device.

Parameters

device

The device to register. \

Returns

0 on success, <0 on failure.

net_set_default()

netif_t * net_set_default

(

netif_t *

n

)

Set our default device to an arbitrary device.

Parameters

n	The device to set as default.

Returns

The old default device.

net_shutdown()

void net_shutdown

(

void

)

Shutdown network support.

net_unreg_device()

int net_unreg_device

(

netif_t *

device

)

Unregister a network device.

Parameters

device

The device to unregister.

Returns

0 on success, <0 on failure.

Variable Documentation

net_default_dev

netif_t* net_default_dev

extern

The default network device, used with sockets (read-only). <>

net_if_list

struct netif_list net_if_list

extern

Interface list; note: do not manipulate directly!

net_input_target

net_input_func net_input_target

extern

Where will input packets be routed?
